About this deal

Harris, part charlady, part fairy godmother, whose adventures take her from her humble London roots to the heights of glamour. He was removed from this job as his "reviews were too Smart Alecky" (according to Confessions of a Story Teller), and took refuge in the sports department. I preferred Paris to New York, which is always my complaint with these volumes with multiple books, but both were so sweet and fun that even liking NY a bit less, I still much preferred it to other books I’ve read. I LOVED Mrs Harris Goes to Paris, and while Mrs Harris Goes to New York is also very charming, it didn’t have quite the same magic; it’s very much a sequel and wouldn’t stand alone, as it implies a knowledge of the events of its predecessor.

Left to herself, Mrs Harris then indulged in one of her favourite pastimes, which was the reading of old newspapers.What a joy to read two good, clean stories about normal everyday people who know how to enjoy life, pursue their dreams, and make life better for those around them. There are interesting characters around Mrs Harris - who, of course, is quite a character in herself. Full of wonderful secondary characters, and some not so wonderful, it all makes for a very charming and delightfully fun read.

Never in her life has Mrs Harris seen anything so beautiful and is completely and utterly enamoured. Always kind, always cheery and always winsome, the indomitable Mrs Harris takes Paris by storm and learns one of life's greatest lessons along the way. I'm not going to lie, I only wanted to read Mrs Harris Goes to Paris because I wanted to watch the adaptation starring Lesley Manville (who I adore -- everyone should watch Mum! El paseo por Nueva York es interesante, y sus ideas de encontrar siempre la bondad en la gente, con unas cuantas excepciones, aunque puede pecar de ingenua porque eso de encontrar un George Brown solamente con el nombre y un par de datos. Finance is provided by PayPal Credit (a trading name of PayPal UK Ltd, Whittaker House, Whittaker Avenue, Richmond-Upon-Thames, Surrey, United Kingdom, TW9 1EH).When the father Nina never knew existed suddenly dies, leaving behind innumerable sisters, brothers, nieces, and nephews, Nina is horrified. Her dropped aitches, her rough hands and old clothes topped with a battered hat are all a part of her and she does not try to mask herself. I liked Paris and the whole “little old(ish) lady charms everyone around her and changes their lives”.

After both of these back to back stories about her, I have several pages of new words to look up, which is a good thing even though having a gist of their meanings. Gallantly stepping up when appealed to, the Ambassador temporarily adopts Henry as his grandson, and the latest disaster is averted. She’d make sure things get done properly and probably be a lot more sensible than most of the current MPs! These books are lovely, life affirming reads that will encourage you to believe in everyday miracles in your own life. I felt exhilarated after reading these, and reminded that ordinary life can become extraordinary, if only we are prepared to be brave enough to make it so.Even so, as a follow on from Mrs Harris Goes to Paris, it is a welcome continuation of the lives and adventures of several favourite characters. This is the unforgettable story of young Hugh "Shuggie" Bain, a sweet and lonely boy who spends his 1980s childhood in run-down public housing in Glasgow, Scotland.

These stories are perfect for when you crave a read that will leave you with a smile on your face and a warm, happy feeling in your heart!
